The holiday season is the perfect time to enjoy a delicious glass of eggnog. But as many eggnog recipes call for uncooked eggs, salmonella is a concern. For peace of mind, use a recipes that call for cooked eggs. Most recipes that use cooked eggs instruct the preparer to first whisk the eggs. Then the eggs should be warmed with milk and seasonings in a saucepan. Finally, the rest of the ingredients (including alcohol) can be added. The heat warms the eggs and kills any trace of harmful bacteria.
